With the popularity in emule seen on the boards recently, I thought it would be good to have a thread about how it works and what the different settings are for. This can be the place to ask questions about how to decide what settings to use and such. I really hope this doesn't become filled with posts like "my download is too slow" or "why does this suck so much?". If a mod feels that this thread doesn't belong here or that people are using this thread to complain, then just delete it.

To start out, I have a question.

Ok, I read the info I could find on the emule site but I am still confused about the setting "capacities" found in the connections part of the preferences. What exactly does this do? I understand the limits setting right next to it but haven't figured out the "capacities" one.
